Quality Control

Our 2-(3-Pentadecylphenoxy)Butyryl Chloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopic methods, to ensure high purity and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and moisture-sensitive nature, the container must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent decomposition. Keep away from strong bases, oxidizers, and sources of ignition.
